Gamblers loved Joe Burrow for what he did at the end of the Bengals-Browns game
Joe Burrow and the Cincinnati Bengals might have lost to the Browns on Thursday night but the rookie quarterback out of LSU won over a lot of new fans for what he did at the end of the game.
You see, the Bengals were getting six points against the Browns and a lot of bettors had some action on Cincinnati. Things didn’t look good in the final minutes of the game after the Browns scored with just under four minutes left to take a 12-point lead.
But then Burrow took the field and led the Bengals on a 16-play, 75-yard drive that ended with a TD pass to Tyler Boyd with 48 seconds that made it the 35-30 final score.
That, my friends, is a nice little backdoor cover by Burrow and the Bengals.
And the legend of Joey Backdoor is born.

Joe Burrow is gonna be a backdoor covering machine this season. He has the talent, ability and the no quit attitude to score those late cheap TD's like that to impact the pointspread in any given game. Get used to that potentially.
